Season Pass 2 Discussion

The beach stage is the best part of this trailer.
The bikinis and beach trunks are a huge disappointment. They are the blandest in series history, lol. DOA5 had so many cute, unique designs, they didn't even try with these here, apart from them being all the same just in different colors. Same goes for the men's trunks, super generic and boring. Why are they all colored so dark? What a about a little splash of color in the summer at the beach?
The beach stage is bigger than I thought. Looks like they combined the two DOA5 beach stages. They clearly reused some assets. It does look very uninteresting and sterile though, also the surrounding environment, might be DOA6's messed up lighting engine though.

The stage looks cool at least, I couldn't really see the backs of Kasumi and Eliots swimsuits so I couldn't judge those.
Right xD the swimsuits would have been better if they at least chose personalized ones, I feel like Nico got the best one since it wasn't a standard two piece and Phase has a sheer skirt with hers too. Hopefully the music will be some good tracks from VV
Also I think the stage is based on the beach stage from seaside market due to the similar baloons and trees and such, it looks like they wanted to keep the stage somewhat reminiscent of that stage while making it look new which I'm fine with.

The new stage looks super fun. It's the best beach stage doa has ever had, apart from seaside market of course.
I agree, Nico swimsuit is cute. I think Marie Rose have the same thing, just in a different color. You picked the stage apart nicely. I see everything you’ve pointed out so clearly. The other bonus about the stage, it’s free. I hope TeamNinja add more intros and outtros. Leifang intro is so tired now . Also I’m looking forward to Tag mode. Going back to the swimsuit topic. I wish the men had thongs or speedos. The girls deserve better too. Their swimsuits are safe and generic.

My expectation has been met. These swimsuits don't disappoint (NiCO & Kasumi are favorites). I'll get the 2nd Season Pass once My money recovers from EVO (hopefully I hit big at Casinos).

This time I don't see the situation that bad honestly.
For me stages are way more important that costumes and since this stage looks really good (in fact better than both DOA5 beach stages) and it's still free (we had a discussion about paid stages not long ago), I will take that.
Lazy bikinis and recolor "bonus" costumes behind a 92€ pay wall?, as I would spend that money just for costumes. They not relying in flashy bikinis to sell the game this time (let's remember DOA 5 vanilla selling that CE with DOAX2 costumes) is even good news. And after all, even if you want them, they are better and more unique than both Tekken 7 and SoulCalibur VI bikinis.
I would prefer they focusing in fixing current issues and working in cool stages and characters than Koei pushing TN to work in hundreds of unique costumes.
If this time they focused and spend all the time in this stage instead in the bikinis, I will applaud them for that.

I don't really think It's a "choose one" sort of situation though, Like they can only focus on the stage being good or the bikinis and whatever the don't focus on will just have to be bad. There's no reason why both the stage and outfits can't be great and recieve the time and attention they require to be great and worth the $90 price point. And I agree, The stage means more to me than the outfits but I'd still like to see both get the attention they need and that we would receive a wide variety of creative beach outfits to go with our new beautiful beach stage.
Anyway though with all of that said I genuinely am excited for the new beach stage on Tuesday, It looks really pretty and I will get Lisa's swimsuit outfit if they are actually individually available.

Given the situation with this engine, deadlines and TN also working in other games, they have to prioritize and they can't just spend all the time they want with everything.
We have costumes every single month unlike other games, so it isn't like they just want to release worse costumes than in DOA5.

That's just it they keep releasing more DLC instead of working on making this game on par with DoA5LR. We need more stages then we do the obvious bikini DLC and tell me how many stages are we getting?
TN is focused on other games and DoA has become an afterthought. The fact that they are still releasing DLC and haven't fixed current issues as you said doesn't sit well with me. Then you see other fighting games getting fixes in a more timely matter.
Here's a fix when can we start buying individual costumes because till then i have no interest in buying this season pass especially with what I've seen so far. When TN/Tecmo stop treating this game as a straight cash grab I'll continue to support it.
We need at least 3 or 4 more stages at this point in my opinion. The costumes we've seen so far have been lackluster at best. This game still needs fixes and graphical improvements. We had to literally wait for lobbies which should have been there from the start.
All that being said I still enjoy playing DoA6 with my friends. I just cant support this game at this point until I see some type of sign from TN/Tecmo that they are listening to us. I feel like they're turning a blind eye to us but still shoving DLC in our faces.
There's no way I'm buying this pass. I love the stage but man why are we lacking so many stages to begin with? When did expectations become so low that we are actually optimistic with this what we've seen so far with season pass 2?
Yes my expectations are low at this point and until i see a significant update that adresses issues we've all had since the beginning then I'm not investing anymore money.
Do they seriously have like 1 or 2 people polishing the game since launch at this point because thats what it feels like. I just want a DoA6 ultimate at this point and hopefully its the game we should've had from the start with minor improvements.

The stage looks great in my opinion and I'd rather them focus on that more then the costumes at this point.

We still have to wait to the update to know if they fixed or improved something, we can't know just with this trailer.
Anyways, listening to "us" is subjective because there's a lot "us" with differents request. People asked for bikinis since launch because DOA5 had bikinis since launch, now here they are.
Others like me asked for more free stages, and here is a new free stage.
Will they sell all these DLCs individually for PS4? well, they started selling both Mai and Kula costumes individually so I will guess that yes.
Yes, there are more things to improve and fix but even if we ask them every single day to do it, it isn't like they will do it in a moment, mainly because Koei want to push other things.
Will this base game be as good as DOA5LR?, of course not, that's not happening. Maybe with one or two more releases?, maybe, who knows. Maybe not, maybe this will always be one of these games that will always be worse than the previous ones (like SF V, for example).
If they keep adding free updates and fixing things from time to time before a second release (Ultimate or whatever) it will be a sign of they wanting to support the game. Because let's be honest, after this rough start Koei could just drop the support to the game and keep investing only in the Xtreme subseries.
They didn't do well with the game but after this stage I will give them the benefit of doubt.

The stage looks good. There is some creativity after all.
Curious to see the new character (probably Momiji).
The BGMs can be nice additions. Want to hear them.

You all still have the guts to complain about costumes are the same from one another other than the pattern, expensive season pass, expensive costumes?
Those were done since DOA5 vanilla and was all I complained during DOA5 life line.
You complained something you previously supported. Do you guys do it now only because your f*cktard game critiques and reviewers do it?
